Procedure
1. Preparation
•
Ensure the power is OFF. Do not connect the WPS-0104 LevelOne Wireless Printer
Server while power is On.
•
Find the
Default Server Name
for your WPS-0104 LevelOne Wireless Printer Server. The
Default Server Name
is shown on a sticker on the base of the device. It consists of 8 letters
and/or digits. Record this name; it may be needed during configuration.
2. Connect the Printer or Printers
Connect the printer or plotter cable(s) to the appropriate port(s) on the WPS-0104 LevelOne
Wireless Printer Server unit.
3. Connect to your Network
Wired Network Interface
Connect the network cable to the 10/100BaseT LAN connector on the WPS-0104 LevelOne
Wireless Printer Server.
•
To use the LAN interface, the LAN cable needs to be inserted
BEFORE powering ON
•
In the default Wireless "Infrastructure" mode, connecting a LAN cable
will disable the Wireless interface. To use both the LAN and Wireless
interfaces, the Wireless mode must be changed to "Ad-hoc".
Wireless Network Interface
Ensure that your Access Point is compatible with the WPS-0104 LevelOne Wireless Printer
Server's default settings:
SSID
Null (blank)
The WPS-0104 LevelOne Wireless Printer Server will adopt the SSID used by
the Access Point, unless the Access Point is configured not to broadcast its
SSID.
WEP
Disabled.
Because the default Wireless mode is "Infrastructure", you cannot
configure the WPS-0104 LevelOne Wireless Printer Server via the
Wireless interface unless you have an Access Point.
